My partner and I have been to this location for coffee multiple times over the past few months and have loved it ever since we first visited. His coffee never misses and is very affordable. The service is always phenominal and vibes are immaculate. We love every time we come in and never leave disappointed. They also offer alkaline water and an assortment of pastries/bagels.

Friendly people who sell great quality coffee! It looks like it's a local's hidden gem as it was a calmer environment but it deserves to be raved about.

Randomly stopped by this place for a coffee and i LOVED it. Strawberry match was AMAZING. Will definitely revisit. :)

Chill water and excellent coffee vibes in a slow moving LA Habra. Much needed watering hole in this part of the planet-OC.

A diamond in the rough as it's located in a shabby strip mall. Dont be fooled but the service and the combo of selling coffee and water is quite unique. I've been there twice and it's been solid. The price point is what sets this place apart from its competitors. I've had their pour over and Americano and it's definitely better than what you could get at some massive chain coffee place. The guy behind the counter is super chill and personable if you're looking to make idle chit chat while he prepares your coffee.

This place is right next to my gym! I have been exploring coffee spots since I'm boycotting Starbucks for their complicity in genocide on Palestinian people. I really enjoyed their coffee I got the strawberry crunch will be back k here again & both times I've been served.. customer service has been amazing

Let me start off by saying that this review is waaaayyyy overdue! My boyfriend and I were looking for a new coffee shop to try, preferably a small business also, and stumbled across Ground Up on Yelp. I'm always a little bit apprehensive when trying a new coffee shop bc I'm a little particular about the sweetness to strong ratio for my coffee but Ground Up did not let me down WHATSOEVER. The owner, Daron is such a down to earth and pleasant person to be around! So, good coffee + awesome service, I mean why wouldn't we keep coming back here? My boyfriend and I have made this our go to coffee shop and go every Saturday. I get the Spanish horchata latte, and my boyfriend gets the salted caramel latte. It's also worth mentioning that even when Daron isn't the one making my drink, it still comes out perfect, and consistency is super important to me. Don't sleep on Ground Up! They are amazing

Oh my strawberry deliciousness!!!! I was visiting the area and, based on reviews, I decided to stop in for an iced coffee. This review is based on the coffee and not the water as I didn't try it. However, I do love the concept of RO water to go!!After perusing the "Signature" creation board, and a little guidance from a friendly and knowledgeable employee, I decided on the Strawberry Crunch Iced Latte and it was, without a doubt, the best coffee drink I have ever had. Bar none!I typically order my coffee drinks half- sweet as I prefer less sugar, and this was still perfectly sweet. I also order decaf as my body says no more caffeine:( and that was no problem either. They not only topped it off with a strawberry cold foam that was so perfectly foamy and sweet on its own, but then sprinkled these little crunchy strawberry bites of goodness on top. Delectable is putting it mildly.So, my recommendation is to run, not walk, to try this Strawberry Crunch iced coffee, or any coffee for that matter, and while you're there grab a chocolate chip cookie...a win-win combo in my opinion.Also of note, the inside was light and open with a lovely minimalist "green" decor, and was very clean. Please support them and keep small businesses up and running.

This place was so cozy and fast! When I came in, my first thought was "wow, I've never been to a coffee shop that also sells water!" The barista was nice and welcoming, I ended u getting the Spanish Horchata! Hands down, best horchata latte I've had in a long time. Will definitely be coming back!

MUST VISIT!!! Deron (not sure of spelling), the owner is an amazing dude! This is the type of place everyone wants to enjoy a cup of Joe. I got a pour over and it was delicious. I got it customized and the price didn't change like in other places. The selection is great too! You won't feel overwhelmed by options and you can get it customized if you simply ask. This place is 10 stars! Highly recommended. Don't waste your time going elsewhere.

Very low-key and under appreciated place. I stopped in because I noticed they used to be a water shop and luckily they still are! They just moved it to the side and made their coffee the primary focus. What's cool is that all the drinks they make use the fancy filtered water that they sell. I came in for simply a few 5 gallon water fill ups and the worker was very nice and accommodating as I have never been to a water shop before. At the time of posting this they have Purified water for 35 cents a gallon which is very reasonable. It's cheaper than whole foods and mother's market and you actually get to use the bottle cleaning sprayer. Also they have Alkaline water for 1 dollar a gallon and *ionized* alkaline water for 2 dollars a gallon. I bought a few 5 gallon containers here as the ones that came with our water delivery service were beat to hell since they reuse them so often. The worker was super down to earth and the drink was very tasty. Hopefully more people check out this spot so they can continue to stay open.
